Chapter 89: The Slimes

Amber was not the fastest. She was not the strongest, or the tallest, or even the prettiest.

But she knew one thing: when Telets, the boy who knew her name and had never asked her anything which would make her storm off in anger, had needed her help, she had been frozen with fear.

Over slimes…

Amber slammed her staff over the head of a small slime. It even looked cute, she had to admit. Like a jellybean.

But as the goo sprayed over her shoes, and they began to sizzle, she knew that nothing in here was cute. Everything wanted to eat her. To use her corpse to power a dungeon core.

She had two choices before her:

Survive.

Or die.

Amber roared, as she used a bit of mana to clean her shoes before the goo managed to eat through them and leave her only in socks on a floor which was drenched in slime remains.
